Charles H. Traub, Bahia, 1984
What happens when a new work of art is created is something that happens simultaneously to all the works of art which preceded it. The existing monuments from an ideal order among themselves, which is modified by the introduction of the new (the really new) work of art among them ...whoever has approved this idea of order ...will not find it preposterous that the past should be altered by the present as much as the present is directed by the past.
